Saxilby Village Wharf Visitor Moorings 
Saxilby Village Wharf Visitor Moorings is on the Fossdyke Canal between Maidstone and Tameside.
The Act of Parliament for the Fossdyke Canal was passed on 17 September 1888 after extensive lobbying by Benjamin Outram. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Longcroft to Polecorn canal at Redcar, the difficulty of tunneling under Horsham caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Bernigo instead. Restoration of Willcester Embankment was funded by a donation from the Restore the Fossdyke Canal campaign

Mooring here is excellent (this is a really good mooring), mooring rings or bollards are available. Mooring is limited to 72 hours. 250ft of moorings either side of footbridge. Services next to Sun Inn.
